MIVOR

YEAR OF CONSTRUCTION 2011/2014 | LATSCH/ITALY

March 1954: Twelve farmers from Latsch create the „Mittelvinschgauer Obsterzeugergenossenschaft“, short MIVO. The quick success brings on a competing event in 1960: the foundation of the second Latsch association Ortler, named after the highest mountain in South Tyrol. After decades the quite fruitful competition soon gives way to a gradual harmonization, at first 1979 in the form of new, neighboring locations. In 2007 finally the fusion to MIVOR follows. Today the 400 MIVOR members produce about 500 million apples per year on an area of 1,100 hectares. Half of this amount is exported – to a total of 49 countries in Europe, North Africa and Asia.
